Abstract
Description
- This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. Section 119 of Korean Patent Application Serial No. 10-2012-0150773, entitled “Common Mode Filter” filed on Dec. 21, 2012, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety into this application.
- 1. Technical Field
- The present invention relates to a common mode filter.

- Recently, electronic devices such as a cellular phone, a home appliance, a personal computer (PC), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a liquid crystal display (LCD), and the like, have been gradually digitalized and a speed of the electronic devices has gradually increased. Since these electronic devices are sensitive to stimulus from the outside, in the case in which small abnormal voltage and high frequency noise introduced into the electronic devices from the outside into an internal circuit, a circuit may be damaged or a signal may be distorted.
- An example of a cause of the above-mentioned abnormal voltage and noise includes lightning, electrostatic discharge charged in a human body, switching voltage generated in the circuit, power noise included in power supply voltage, an unnecessary electromagnetic signal, electromagnetic noise, or the like. As a unit for preventing the above-mentioned abnormal voltage and high frequency noise from being introduced into the circuit, a common mode filter has been used.
- A general structure of a common mode filter according to the related art will be described with reference to Patent Document 1. The common mode filter according to the related art has a structure in which a pair of conductor coils magnetically coupled to each other is formed on a magnetic substrate and is enclosed by an insulating resin. That is, the common mode filter has a structure in which the magnetic substrate and an insulating layer are stacked in view of an appearance.
- However, in the general common mode filter according to the related art as disclosed in Patent Document 1, since a primary coil and a secondary coil are formed on different layers, there is a limitation in slimming the common mode filter.
- In addition, since one ends of the primary and secondary coils are positioned at the center of a winding region, a lead wire should be provided on a separate layer in order to connect one ends of the first and secondary coils to external electrodes. Therefore, it is difficult to slim the common mode filter, and parasitic capacitance is generated between the lead wire and the coils to deteriorate performance of the common mode filter.

substrate 110 may be amagnetic substrate 110 made of a magnetic material. - Here, in the case in which a content of magnetic material is high, a passivation layer may be provided in order to improve an insulation property.
- The
coil part 120 may include aconductor coil 125 provided in aninsulating part 124. - The
external electrode 140 may be electrically connected to theconductor coil 125 and serve to electrically connect theconductor coil 125 to another device when thecommon mode filter 100 is mounted on or coupled to another device. In addition, a plurality ofexternal electrodes 140 may be provided while being insulated from each other. That is, theexternal electrodes 140 may include a first primaryexternal electrode 141, a second primaryexternal electrode 142, a first secondaryexternal electrode 143, and a second secondaryexternal electrode 144. - The
magnetic material part 130 is provided between theexternal electrodes 140 on the insulatingpart 124. In thecommon mode filter 100 according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a structure capable of maximizing a volume of themagnetic material part 130 is used in order to improve impedance characteristics. - That is, the
external electrode 140 provided on the insulatingpart 124 is formed so that a length Te of a short side of a transversal cross section is shorter than a height We thereof. Therefore, when it is assumed that sizes of thecommon mode filters 100 are the same as each other, the volume of themagnetic material part 130 provided between theexternal electrodes 140 may be maximized. - In other words, the
external electrode 140 is formed in a shape in which a width Te thereof is narrower than the height We thereof. Particularly, the length Te of the short side of the transversal cross section of theexternal electrode 140 is a half or less of the height We thereof. - Therefore, the
external electrode 140 of thecommon mode filter 100 according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention may be considered as being substantially formed in a panel shape. -
FIG. 3A is a plan view schematically showing a state in which a conductor pattern is formed;FIG. 4A is a plan view schematically showing a state in which aninsulating part 124 and a connection electrode are formed;FIG. 5A is a plan view schematically showing a state in which anexternal electrode 140 is formed; andFIG. 6A is a plan view schematically showing a state in which amagnetic material part 130 is formed. - In addition,
FIGS. 3B , 4B, 5B, and 6B are, respectively, cross-sectional views taken along the line I-I′ ofFIGS. 3A , 4A, 5A, and 6A. - Hereinafter, a detailed configuration of the
common mode filter 100 according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference toFIGS. 3A to 6B . - First, referring to

- The
conductor coil 125 is formed on an upper surface of a first insulatingpart 121 disposed on a surface of thesubstrate 110, thereby making it possible to prevent a short circuit phenomenon due to a magnetic material included in thesubstrate 110. - In addition, as shown in
FIGS. 4A and 4B , a secondinsulating part 122 covering theconductor coil 125 and the first insulatingpart 121 may be further provided on the first insulatingpart 121 to configure theinsulating part 124 together with the first insulatingpart 121. - Therefore, the
conductor coil 125 may be included in the insulatingpart 124. - In addition, an inner portion of the insulating
part 124 may be further provided with a second primary outer terminal PT2 and a second secondary outer terminal ST2, which may be electrically connected to theconductor coil 125 by a primary lead terminal and a second lead terminal to be described below. - Meanwhile, a first primary connection electrode PCE1, a second primary connection electrode PCE2, a first secondary connection electrode SCE1, and a second secondary connection electrode SCE2 may be provided on the second insulating
part 122. - Here, the first primary connection electrode PCE1 may be provided on the first primary outer terminal PT1 to thereby be directly connected to the first primary outer terminal PT1, and the second primary connection electrode PCE2 may be provided on the second primary outer terminal PT2 to thereby be directly connected to the second primary outer terminal PT2. In addition, the first secondary connection electrode SCE1 may be provided on the first secondary outer terminal ST1 to thereby be directly connected to the first secondary outer terminal ST1, and the second secondary connection electrode SCE2 may be provided on the second secondary outer terminal ST2 to thereby be directly connected to the second secondary outer terminal ST2.
- Further, the first primary connection electrode PCE1 to the second secondary connection electrode SCE2 may be connected to the first primary outer terminal PT1 to the second secondary outer terminal ST2 by vias (not shown), or the like, respectively.
- Next, referring to
FIGS. 5A and 5B , a primary lead electrode PLE having one end connected to the second primary connection electrode PCE2 and a second lead electrode SLE having one end connected to the second secondary electrode SCE2 may be provided on an upper surface of the second insulatingsurface 122. Here, the other end of the primary lead electrode PLE may be formed toward the first primary connection electrode PCE1 so as to reach up to an upper portion of the primary inner terminal PI, and the primary lead electrode PLE and the primary inner terminal PI may be electrically connected to each other by a first via V1 penetrating through the second insulatingpart 122. - In addition, the other end of the second lead electrode SLE may be formed toward the first secondary connection electrode SCE1 so as to reach up to an upper portion of the second inner terminal SI, and the secondary lead electrode SLE and the secondary inner terminal SI may be electrically connected to each other by a second via V2 penetrating through the second insulating
part 122. - As described above, the primary lead electrode PLE and the secondary lead electrode SLE may be provided and also serve as a lead wire on a layer on which the
external electrodes 140 are formed, such that a layer for a lead wire according to the related art needs not to be added. Therefore, a problem due to parasitic capacitance may be alleviated, and it may be easy to slim thecommon mode filter 100. - Meanwhile, a first primary additional electrode PAE1 to a second secondary additional electrode SAE2 may be connected to the first primary connection electrode PCE1 to the second secondary connection electrode SCE2, respectively, to improve connectivity with
external terminals 150 to be described below. - In addition, both of the first primary connection electrode PCE1 and the first primary additional electrode PAE1 may be collectively called a first primary
external electrode 141, all of the second primary connection electrode PCE2, the first lead electrode PLE, and the second primary additional electrode PAE2 may be collectively called a second primaryexternal electrode 142, both of the first secondary connection electrode SCE1 and the first secondary additional electrode SAE1 may be collectively called a first secondaryexternal electrode 143, and all of the second secondary connection electrode SCE2, the secondary lead electrode SLE, and the second secondary additional electrode SAE2 may be collectively called a second secondaryexternal electrode 144. - Next, referring to
FIGS. 6A and 6B , themagnetic material part 130 filled in a region between theexternal electrodes 140 may be formed on the insulatingpart 124. - As described above, in the
common mode filter 100 according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, since theexternal electrodes 140 are substantially formed in a panel shape, a volume of themagnetic material part 130 may be relatively increased as compared with thecommon mode filter 100 according to the related art having the same size as that of thecommon mode filter 100 according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention. - Therefore, impedance characteristics of the
common mode filter 100 according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention may be improved as compared with the related art. -
FIG. 7A is a plan view schematically showing a state in which acover part 131 is formed;FIG. 7B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line I-I′ ofFIG. 7A ; andFIG. 8 is a plan view schematically showing a state in which anexternal terminal 150 is formed. - Referring to
FIGS. 7A to 8 , thecommon mode filter 100 according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention may further include a plurality ofexternal electrodes 150 covering first to fourthexternal electrodes 140, respectively. Here, theexternal terminals 150 may include a firstexternal terminal 151 covering the firstexternal electrode 140, a secondexternal terminal 152 covering the secondexternal electrode 140, a thirdexternal terminal 153 covering the thirdexternal electrode 140, and a fourthexternal terminal 154 covering the fourthexternal electrode 140. - In addition, the primary lead electrode PLE and the secondary lead electrode SLE may be formed to have a length longer than those of other electrodes. Therefore, in the primary lead electrode PLE and the secondary lead electrode SLE, portions that are not covered by the
external terminals 150 may be generated. - When the
common mode filter 100 is coupled to another device, theexternal terminals 150 may be applied with solder pastes, which may be short-circuited by exposed portions of a primaryexternal terminal 150 and a secondaryexternal terminal 150. - In order to prevent this problem, the
common mode filter 100 according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention may further include acover part 131 covering the exposed portions of the primaryexternal terminal 150 and the secondaryexternal terminal 150 and made of an insulating material. - Here, the
cover part 131 is made of a magnetic material, thereby making it possible to contribute to improvement of impedance characteristics of thecommon mode filter 100. - According to the exemplary embodiments of the present invention configured as described above, the impedance characteristics of the common mode filter may be improved.
- In addition, the parasitic capacitance problem may be decreased without a separate lead wire, and it may be easy to slim the common mode filter.
